Struggling in Grade 1 company but has a Grade 2 success to his name in December 2018. Needs to step up on previous efforts to get competitive here.

100/1

Forecasts

Cadmium (6/5), Ornua (13/8), Mengli Khan (2/1), Castlegrace Paddy (10/3), Solar Heat (100/1)

Verdict

The 158-rated CADMIUM for the Willie Mullins yard can get back to winning ways in this contest. The eight-year-old last won at Aintree in a Grade 3 contest last April and can land the spoils in this event. The wayward but talented Mengli Khan for the Gordon Elliott yard and the 150-rated Ornua who has disappointed this season can pose the biggest threat.
  1. Cadmium
  2. Mengli Khan
  3. Ornua
